Print quotes and invoices in Word

With Microsoft Office Accounting 2008, you can print customer and supplier documents such as quotes, invoices, sales receipts and customer credit notes using Microsoft Office Word, which can provide professional-looking content. In addition, with Office Accounting Professional and Office Accounting Professional Plus, you can print sales orders and purchase orders using Office Word.

The following example describes how to print an invoice using Word. Because the process is similar for all the document types, you can use the information in this example for all your printing needs.

Open the desired document in Office Accounting 2008.

Invoice form

On the File menu, click Print. (Do not use the icon on the toolbar, because that will send the form directly to the printer without opening the Print dialog box.)

The Print dialog box displays the selected template. Click OK. Word opens in the background and sends the invoice to the selected printer for printing. After the document has been printed, Word closes.

We recommend that you customise one or more templates to best meet your company's needs. Customisation can include adding a company logo, modifying the layout and adding a slogan.
